This year, you mix

your strong precision

and attention to detail

with manifesting a

long-term, emotional goal. You

often juggle your feelings with

moments of intellectualism.

If single, you create much

more of what you want in a

relationship. You will meet this

person sometime after the

fall. Take your time building

this bond -- do not push.

If attached, your sweetie

finds you warmer and more

emotional than in the recent

past. Home becomes an

important concern, with the

possibility of a new addition.

You might opt to remodel or

move. A Cancer supports you

with these changes.

ARIES

(MARCH 21-APRIL 19).

You might have an active day,

but your mind keeps returning

to a domestic matter. The

solutions presented so far

seem limiting. Tap into your

creativity. Even if an idea

seems impossible, try it out.

TAURUS

(APRIL 20-MAY 20).

What you say can make a

difference. You can even chill

in the status quo. However,

you are also capable of

shaking up the status quo.

Present your perspective with

some originality. Let go of rigid

thinking.

GEMINI

(MAY 21-JUNE 20).

You possess a great deal of

energy and positive vibrations.

You might want to spend more

time with a friend who you

have not visited for a long

period. What better way than

setting a goal?

CANCER

(JUNE 21-JULY 22).

Your emotional nature tends

to impact not only you, but

also those around you.

You inadvertently create a

roller-coaster ride for others.

Someone might pull away as

a result. This person is waiting

for calmer waters.

LEO

(JULY 23-AUG. 22).

Center and complete a project

despite the fact that you

might want to pursue another

pastime. You will need to be

somewhat isolated to finish

what you are doing.

VIRGO

(AUG. 23-SEPT. 22).

Zero in on a topic of

importance. Use timing and

you will get a better result.

Nevertheless, a realization

could toss you off-track -- at

least for a while. Absorb

the information and its

implications.

LIBRA

(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22).

You might feel unusually

tense but not know exactly

why. You are carrying a lot of

responsibilities and cannot

seem to get a spare moment.

A conversation with a family

member is difficult.

SCORPIO

(OCT. 23-NOV. 21).

Your intensity emerges in

an unusual circumstance

and cannot seem to get a

response. Someone might

pull away from you rather

than have a conversation. At

this point, give this person

the space he or she seems to

require.

SAGITTARIUS

(NOV. 22-DEC. 21).

A partner zeros in on what he

or she wants. You might try

a discussion, but that does

not work. As a result, you

might feel the need to take a

stronger hand in certain areas.

Know that resentment could

build.

CAPRICORN

(DEC. 22-JAN. 19).

You might be more withdrawn

and upset than you realize.

Ask for more in your life

with the full expectation of

receiving it. A friend lets you

know how sad he or she feels.

Remain empathetic, but know

that you cannot inject yourself

into this person’s situation.

AQUARIUS

(JAN. 20-FEB. 18).

You have a lot to do but cannot

get past the present issue. As

a result, you create pressure in

your life. Look for ways around

this present issue. Can you

delegate some tasks? Can you

postpone a meeting?

PISCES

(FEB. 19-MARCH 20).

You flow where others do

not have the time or volition

to get through a problem.

Sometimes, you find that not

worrying and doing your thing

in this type of situation is best.
